A new railway division is expected to be formed in Jammu, India, to accommodate the increasing railway network in Jammu and Kashmir and reduce the burden on the existing Firozpur division. This new division is planned to cover 417 kilometers of railway track from Sujanpur in Punjab to Baramula in Kashmir,...

encompassing 43 stations. The headquarters of this new division will be located in Jammu, and Kathua is slated to become the largest station within this division. The order for this division was issued back in 2012, but has remained dormant. The new division is expected to benefit around 4,000 railway employees who will no longer have to travel to Firozpur to address their concerns. The creation of this division is a significant step towards improving railway infrastructure and services in the region, ultimately connecting Kanyakumari to Kashmir via a direct rail route within the year.

Jammu mein jaldi hi ek nayi rail division banne ki umeed hai. Jammu aur Kashmir mein rail network badh raha hai, aur Firozpur division pe zyada load hai, isliye ye step liya ja raha hai. Ye nayi division Sujanpur (Punjab) se lekar Baramula (Kashmir) tak ki 417 kilometer ki rail line...

ko cover karega, aur ismein 43 stations honge. Is nayi division ka headquarters Jammu mein hoga, aur Kathua is division ka sabse bada station banne wala hai. 2012 mein is division ka order issue hua tha, lekin ab tak yeh file mein hi daba raha hai. Is nayi division se 4,000 railway employees ko benefit milega, jinhe apni problems ke liye Firozpur nahi jana padega. Kanyakumari se Kashmir tak direct rail route is saal ke andar ban jaane ki wajah se bhi ye division banna bahut important hai.
